The Callsign: What's In A Name?

What's in a name...?

I'm not talking about ordinary names, baby names or another of that sort...I'm asking what's in a name. I don't think that people realize that the names that they give their children carry real significance, I mean, when was the last time you've heard of people actually researching what their son/daughter's name actually means?

Allow me to explain a bit further. I identify myself as Umbra Obscurum:

Umbra: Noun, shade, a shadow, a phantom or shadowy apparition, as of someone or something not physically present, a ghost.

Obscurum:  Latin Translation...Darkness, of the Dark.

So, to put it in layman's terms my name, the call-sign that I've chosen for myself technically means a shadow that is of the darkness, a phantom of the shade, a shadowy apparition,

I am...a DarkShadow.
